Gina K. July 2016 Inspiration Hop, Day Two (Bella Elephant, So Cool, Sweet Thing)

The Cast and Crew for Gina K Designs welcomes you to another fabulous blog hop celebrating the new stamp sets from the July StampTV Release Party! We hope to inspire you with some beautiful card projects as you hop along to each of the designer’s blogs! Today, we are featuring two stamp sets by Beth Silaika and Claire Brennan.

The first set we are featuring is Bella Elephant by Beth Silaika. Beth has created a super cute set with the sweetest images and matching sentiments to make the perfect card project! 


Claire Brennan is releasing four amazingly beautiful stamp sets this release month! My Island is like a tropical get-away, Petite Patisserie is a sweet shop of goodness, So Cool is packed with yummy ice cream treats and Sweet Thing is a cupcake lovers dream! Beth and Claire have created some serious ‘cuteness overload’ in these sets!




Enjoy the gorgeous inspiration samples from the team and then comment on each blog for your chance to win a $20 Gina K Designs gift certificate! To see who won, check the Big News Forum at StampTV a few days after the hop.


This set is named for my daughter, Isabella, who we call Bella.  

The flag is one of the add on elements and this sentiment fits perfectly in it!

The elephant also comes with other elements such as flowers for Bella to hold! The sentiment is from Hippo Bird Day! <3

Here is a watercolored background card with Bella! 


I found the fairy in the sweet thing set and fell in love - look how cute she is!


Here is the fairy again with a strip of stars



The So Cool Set has a bunch of adorable ice creams with matching sentiments. I watercolored this!

Same cute sentiment, but different ice cream cone.  I used spectrum noir markers to color in the ice cream cone!
